Keenan Thygesen, now a fifth grade student at Tunbridge Central School, lives on a farm in Tunbridge that has been in his family for 10 generations. Keenan says he loves cows and farming – and is inspired by his father Kyle and his grandparents.
Cows
By Keenan Thygesen
Grade Five, Tunbridge Central School
The place where I feel most confident is in the show ring at the New York Spring Show in Syracuse, N.Y.
I feel confident because I’ve shown there before and sometimes get high placings.
I like to see how many other calves are in my class and where they place.
I feel confident because I’ve taught my calf to lead well. My calf is clean and well-clipped.
I like that I always feel confident at the show and look forward to next spring.
